Now, when I was just
a little boy,
Standin' to my Daddy's knee,
My poppa said, "Son,
don't let the man get you
Do what he done to me."
'Cause he'll get you,
'Cause he'll get you now, now.
.And I can remember
the fourth of July,
Runnin' through
the backwood, bare.
And I can still hear
my old hound dog barkin',
Chasin' down a hoodoo there.
Chasin' down a hoodoo there.
.Born on the bayou
.Born on the bayou
.Born on the bayou
Wish I was back on the Bayou.
Rollin' with some Cajun Queen.
Wishin' I were
a fast freight train,
Just a chooglin' on
down to New Orleans.
.Born on the bayou
.Born on the bayou
.Born on the bayou
a little boy,
Standin' to my Daddy's knee,
My poppa said, "Son,
don't let the man get you
Do what he done to me."
'Cause he'll get you,
'Cause he'll get you now, now.
.And I can remember
the fourth of July,
Runnin' through
the backwood, bare.
And I can still hear
my old hound dog barkin',
Chasin' down a hoodoo there.
Chasin' down a hoodoo there.
.Born on the bayou
.Born on the bayou
.Born on the bayou
Wish I was back on the Bayou.
Rollin' with some Cajun Queen.
Wishin' I were
a fast freight train,
Just a chooglin' on
down to New Orleans.
.Born on the bayou
.Born on the bayou
.Born on the bayou
